Overeaters Anonymous
It's not for everyone, but works for some. This comment was left at The Atkins Avenger at a post about OA:
"I have been going to OA for a number of years in Australia. I feel loved and supported in my group, but just as importantly challenged. My disease of overeating is about dishonesty - for years I thought I got fat even though I didn't eat very much. I truly believed that. It was OA that helped me to chip away at that self-deceit and see how much food I was putting in my mouth.
I hope you can find what I have found - a new way to live. I now eat three times a day, a miracle for someone who spent 35 years grazing all day. And I have found something else between those 3 meals - life.
Keep going back. It has worked for me."

Any support group is as good as the people in that particular group. I am thinking of going back to check out the local OA group.
